THE NEW BIRTH

Because there is
simply an awareness
that my experience
of life as a juju nomad'
is simply not working
in line with what
other writers profiled,


I begin to seek in my arts, 
what is it they long for,
I begin to ask
in my poetry,
and question myself
through my own studies,
After a time in
becomes a habit,
a principle
a practice a way
in my study to see
my heritage
in lieu with a world.

SUPPLICATION

In supplication
In Prayer
In Uplifting your holy name
am I
Praising You
Thanking You
For Your Many Blessings

Blessings so Sweet
Blessings so Deep
that sometimes all I can do is
LIft Up My Hands
In Supplication
In Prayer
In Praise

Worshipping Your Name
Thanking You
for the blessings
that I have
always..."

The poem
Supplication from the book
Musings Of A Mocha Sista
by
Pamela Osbey
MOMMY

This is for the mother
who always looks a mess
but always makes sure
her children look their best

This is for the mother
who doesn't need time "for me"
her kids are first
she only thinks of "we"

This is for the mother
who would rather be alone
than confuse her daughter
by bringing some strange man home

This is for the mother
who makes every sacrifice
for her most valued gift
the children she gave life.

On second thought this THANK YOU
is not for the mothers, it's for mommies...

SHAKE THAT ASS....

Shake that ass girl
tell yourself it's for the money
cause if you ever stop and think
you know this just ain't funny

What kind of "job" do you have
that's easier to do when you high?

What kind of "work"is it
with a strange man rubbing your inner thigh

You tell yourself you can play the game
no personal connects, just make the loot
so what if everybody in the bar
thinks you're a prostitute

Oh my bad it's not prostituting
it's a date, call it what you may
but I bet you wouldn't want your daddy
to know you were acting this way

Stop now sweet heart
put in your clothes and leave this **it
you don't want your children to know
mommy was a go go chick.

BLACK MOON

Black moon currant sky

On a canvas of blue and gray

Indigo rain charcoal clouds

Horizons of wine and gold

Black moon ebony spirit

On a soul that's blue and gray

Beautiful colors streaming down

Over a night as wondrous as day

Over a night as wondrous as day

    Special Moments    

The Things we should be grateful for,
special moments that make us  proud to be mom's

When we are rushing our child off to bed
so we can get a break yet  she stops
to pray to God

and we kneel down beside her,
she shows us what is right

When time is winding up and we haven't slept yet           
When we have those days
when the kids just aren't acting right, we might fuss

yet think of the parent that lost control
and now the child is gone.

Think of the day that we had and be grateful with God
We will make it through and soon
we will get our wings

Or think of the moment when we are afraid
when our children must travel alone

Yet, we realize there is no fear in God,
He promises to protect Special Moments
and Many  More Can All Be Found  In God

One person touch a child, one person feed a child,
one person teach a child, one person love a child
and the blessings will come back to you ten fold!!!!


Happy Mother's Day To All!
